COVERING THE SEED.-My plan is
to always cover seed Of all kinds,
whether large or small; OF course very
fine seed needs only a light covering,
and the soil should be very fine, yet l
always considered that / secured bet
ter plants by marking out a shallow
furrow and sowing the seed in 1t and
then covering lightly. Coarse, heavy
seed need and require deeper covering
than fine, light seed. While no rule
can be given that under all cireum-
stances and conditions may he consld-
cred the best, yet generally you can be
safe If you Will regulate the depth OF
planting and covering by the size of
the seed. For fine seed like celery a
shallow mark is made and the seed
sprinkled in it as evenly as possible,
and then the soil sprinkled over the
seed and lightly pressed down. When
seed are planted very near the surface,
as a rule, the surest plan to secure q
good termination is to press the SOIL
down upon the seed after covering,
and especially If the soil is warm and
inclined to dry out. a certain de-
gree of moisture and contact with the
soil is essential to secure a good ger
mination, and l find that these condi-
tions can be best secured by taking
pains to cover lightly. Generally early
planted seeds should be covered lighter
than if the same seeds were planted
three or four weeks later, after the soil
becomes warmer and often drler; heat
is almost as essential as moisture-that
Is, to a certain extent, and If planted
too deep when the soil is wet and cold
they will either lie there until the soil
Is sufficiently warm to induce germina-
ton or they will rot. L never could see
any good economy in having the seed
lie IN the ground under unfavorable
conditions and failing to terminate,
even though they do finally. l 9
considered that the plants we're as
vigorous as If an earlier termination
had been secured. For this reason l
find it the safest and best to make all
the conditions as favorable for ger
mination as possible.

"PerfectIy Lovely"

In q recent article Kate Sanborn

perfectly lovely Bah! that is truly
nauseating. l venture to affirm that
that much. abused phrase is used at
least ten times daily by every school
girl, every college girl, every young
lady in this country. 1t is the stock
phrase at Smith, Wellesly and NasSlr;
in fact, conversation would droop and
languish without it. y young lady
comes in to see Inc and she begins:
"Oh, Miss Sanborn, how perfectly love

SCIENTIFIC.

What Is really needed Is some system,
could such be devised, by which the
occurrence Of those hidden flaws which
the very hest metal made by the very best
process will sometimes contain, should
be rendered patent to the eye OF an In
spector. Is there any chance OF such a
system being devsed2 1t is clear that
chemical tests are quite useless; they
can tell nothing but the general COM
position of the metal. Electrical tests
may possibly yet be used with effect.
They were proposed some years ago,
and have been revived lately by PROBES
sor Hughes, the inventor Of the micro
phone. With his beautiful instrument,
the magnetic balance" he has proved
that in wires or small pieces Of iron,
almost all peculiaritIes of the metal,
including the existence Of flaws, can be
detected with ease and certainty. Ills
invention has been freely given to the
world, but hitherto the world las usual
has been wholly Indifferent to the gift.
So far as we are aware. no railway or
marine engineer has taken any steps
with a view to ascertain whether q
similar system might not be applied TO
pieces Of large size, such as those re-
qufred in actual work. Failing in this,
mechanical tests in a proper testing
machine do not seem impossible. If the
axle which broke at Penistone, before
having been set to work, had been sub
jected to a sudden cross-breaking
strain, similar to that which caused its
destruction, but very much below what
it should be able TO support with safety,
we cannot doubt that the resulting de-
Election or bending would have been far
greater than if the axle had been sound.
What we would suggest, therefore, IS
that all crank axles, or other pieces OF
metal called to fill equally important
positions, should be tested by strains
similar to those brought upon them In
actual work, and that their DETECTION
under those strains should be recorded.
A few experiments would be sufficient
to show how great this detection should
be in the case Of a sound and perfect
axle; and If any specimen showed a de-
lection decidedly higher than the limit,
it should be rejected a. a doubtful
quality. The expense of such a system
would not be great when it once became
a regular part of the manufacture of n
axle; and it appears to us the only
method by which a single faulty speci-
men can be weeded out from a batch OF
sound and satisfactory articles.
